16 These are the names of the men which Moses sent to spy out the land. And Moses called fOshea the son of Nun Jehoshua. 17 And Moses sent them to spy out the land of Canaan, and said unto them, Get you up this way gsouthward, and go up into hthe mountain: 18 And see the land, what it is; and the people that dwelleth therein, whether they be strong or weak, few or many; 19 And what the land is that they dwell in, whether it be good or bad; and what cities they be that they dwell in, whether in tents, or in strong holds; 20 And what the land is, whether it be ifat or lean, whether there be wood therein, or not. And kbe ye of good courage, and bring of the fruit of the land. Now the time was the time of the firstripe grapes. 21 So they went up, and searched the land lfrom the wilderness of Zin unto mRehob, nas men come to Hamath. 22 And they ascended by the south, and came unto Hebron; where oAhiman, Sheshai, and Talmai, the children of Anak, were. (Now pHebron was built seven years before qZoan in Egypt.) 23 rAnd they came unto the ||brook of Eshcol, and cut down from thence a branch with one cluster of grapes, and they bare it between two upon a sstaff; and they brought of the pomegranates, and of the figs. 24 The place was called the ||brook ||Eshcol, because of the cluster of grapes which the children of Israel cut down from thence. 25 And they returned from searching of the land after forty days.

26 And they went and came to Moses, and to Aaron, and to all the congregation of the children of Israel, unto the wilderness of Paran, to tKadesh; and brought back word unto them, and unto all the congregation, and shewed them the fruit of the land. 27 And they told him, and said, We came unto the land whither thou sentest us, and surely it floweth with umilk and honey; xand this is the fruit of it. 28 Nevertheless ythe people be strong that dwell in the land, and the cities are ywalled, and very great: and moreover we saw the children of Anak there. 29 zThe Amalekites dwell in the land of the south: and the Hittites, and the Jebusites, and the Amorites, dwell in the mountains: and athe Canaanites dwell by the sea, and by the coast of Jordan. 30 And bCaleb stilled the people before Moses, and said, Let us go up at once, and possess it; for we are well able to overcome it.
